TEMPERANCE MEETING.
Several Speeches at the Pavilion
Last Night.

Several Speeches at the Pavilion
| Last Night.
Some 5000 people assembled at
Hazards Pavilion last night to hear
addresses on tenn perance, DR.. Wild
ney in the chair. The proceedings
commenced by the singing OF hymn,
Stand up for Jesus" followed by a
reading from the psalms and prayer
by Rev. Mr.. Brainard. The Los
Angeles Band of Hope was in atten-
dance with severl notices, banners and
sang glees at various periods of the
evening. The Y M. c. A. Orchestra
was also present and contributed
music. DIR Cantine in brief pithy
speech referred to the evil influence
OF the saloon. He said the time for
talking of the evil results of drunken
ness was past and the time for action
had arrived. He spoke at some
length on the proposition Is the
saloon necessary in the city? What
good does it do?
"Is it of so much value that we can
not do without it?" He referred to it
IN business point Of view, proving
that consumer OF alcohol did not get
value for his money.
DR.. Goodwin made an eloquent adj
dress on the misery caused by "this
great curse" and was frequently and
vocferously applauded. He said that
The object of "a saloon was to destroy
homes, and gave few illustrations OF
what a woman's influence could do in
regard to their husbands and exhorted
them to use that influence, that the
future of their children might not be
blighted by the saloon. A city is
what it's citizens make it and it is for
the people to decide, and the ballot
oox is the means of doing so. 1t is
no party question a man who
belongs to a party is a slave!
The saloon is the curse OF all
that is pure, all that is holy, clean,
upright, religious and all that God
loves, and it is your duty as good citi-
zens to vote against the saloon. l
plead with you to do that which is
right and when the day Of election
comes do it and let the saloon go. DIR.
Widney also spoke few words. The
meeting was brought to close by an
other hymn and prayer.

THE LAND AND THE WORD.
The Work of the 4 rnerfean Home
Missionary Society.

The Work of the 4 rnerfean Home
Missionary Society.
At the First Presbyterian Church
yesterday forenoon, Rev. w. j. Chi
chester delivered a strong sermon or
behalf of the Home Missionary So
ciety. He reviewed the great work
which the society had done in the
past; how it had stretched out into
the frontier and the wilderness and
established churches: how it had sus,
tanned weak congregations and nursed
them into strength; how it buoyed up
the Christian spirit where the field was
univiting and spread the word among
the almost heather of our own land.
The very church in which he preached
had been the object of solicitous help
from the Board, and year after year,
when it could not sustain itself, it had
been kept up by liberal yearly contri-
buttons from the Missionary fund.
He then reviewed the history of our
country, its vast and rapid progress,
its opulence and its material advance
ment. and glanced at the seeds of de-
cay that were being planted by the
righteousness of the times. Our
country in its great progress was the
outcome of the Godfearing and reso-
lutte men who first landed on
its Eastern shores, with the bible in
one hand and liberty in the other.
They sewed the seeds of faith, and
brought with them the elimination
and best fruits of the civilization OF all
the centuries. We we were now
threatened with dangers that could
only be averted by that firmness and
strength of purpose which comes from
the awakened conscience Of the ma
ton based upon the sublime and
everlasting truths contained in the
Bible. On these truths our country
was founded, and on them it had adj
vanced to greatness. Out OF them
came our political system and the un'
exampled liberty we enjoy. Inso
much as these truths are disseminated
and lived up to, insofar will
our country continue to pros
per. And if the teachings
of the good Book are ne
elected and ignored, there will creeT
into our system the destructive doc
trines of the Anarchists and Social
lists. Against these pernicious doc
trines it is the duty of all lovers o
their country to make war, and with
the help of God to avert the calamit
les that must come to our fair lane
from those who are only bent on de-
stroying what civilization and religion
have built up. The reverend gentleman
announced that the collections would
90 to the Home Missionary fund, ant
earnestly invoked the members OF thu
church to remember how much tn
Home Mission had done tor THU
church and give literally towards the
support of that noble work.
The collections amounted to STUBS
They were afterwards swelled to abou
twelve hundred dollars. Last yea
they were only $3.50. Surely tn
preachers eloquence was not poure'
into Indifferent ears.

Render therefore to Caesar the things
that are Caesars, and to God the
things that are Gods
The two spheres OF duty in no way
conflict. Obedience to God does not
interfere with a perfect and untram-
meled obedience to him and his laws.
The words of the text emphasize
the relative Importance of earthly and
heavenly duties. While the former
are not to be neglected, they must not
prove so absorbing as to cause a fail
ure to perform the requirments OF the
latter. Heavenly citizenship is the
one overshadowing reality.

REV. DR.. BIRDSALL.
An Interesting Sermon at st
PANTS Church.

The Rev. Elias Birdsall's sermon at
st Paul's Episcopal Church last night
was very short. His text was Eph.,
third chapter, twentieth verse. He
said: "Our conversation is in heaven.
The revised version Of the bible gives
us citizenship instead of CONVERSE
ton which is certainly the correct
TRANSLATION. This change connects
the words of the epistle with the Cos
mel; especially our Lords words in
reniv to the Pharisees, and
Herodious concerning the giving OF
tribute to Caesar. The Lords were

schemers who have used it to retain
their control over the lines of railways,
and levy tribute on the public, in CON-
parison with which our state, munich
pal and national taxes combined, shriv
ell into insignificance.:
The few who have usurped the rail-
roads and have used a public trust as
property held in fee simple ownership,
have gathered into their Golfers nearly
all the surplus product of the industry
of the country over the bare expense of
production, for the last few years. The
ponderous weight of this grinding tax
falls most heavily on the agricultural
class, because that class has the most
bulky and heavy goods to transport,
and because they have submitted with
the patience of slaves to these exaetions.
A movement has at last been made in
the matter of righting these stupendous
wrongs, by tardy Congress which has
lust given the nation an Inter State
Transportation law. Let the people fol-
lowthis movement up till every railroad
and transportation line in the country
is brought under their control by legal
supervision; until transportation be-
comes as equitable and impartial as our
post office system; till every drop of
water is squeezed out ofthese stocks
that has been put in by fraud, and the
stock is steady paying capital at a
moderate per cent OF interest, similar
to our government bonds.
When railroad presidents" are APP
pointed by the executive with the con-
sent of the U. S. Senate and held direct
" responsible to the people under their
laws, then will stock gambling and
plumber of the public be stopped, and
stipulated salary be paid them for at
ter ding to the legitimate business OF the
roads with no outside schemes to swim
die and rob the public to distract theil
thoughts and rack their brains which
ia at present the case. The productive
business of the country will then re
ceive its just compensation and farm
ing will pay the miions employedin it

individual pursuit, and making oul

Our Public Schools.

Year by year the public schools
appear to become more stinted and
dwindling. This year another half
session is Topped off and the School
commissioners are only able to keep
the schools open seven short mon his
More than half the days of the year
the children are without school
instruction. And the best part of
the year, the summer season, is the
time chosen to shut up the public
schools. When portion of the time
has to be disposed of with closed
school house doors, that proportion
ought to come out of the winter sea-
son, then the heavy coal bills would
be saved, In the summer the small
children could go. In the winter
they cannot, to a large extent attend
school. Our school system is ex-
pensve and inefficient because of the
expense, and calls loudly for reform.
The architects of the system attempt
ed to construct very elaborate es-
Establishment with skimp supply of
materials. The multitude of books
are expensive, the mu titude of les
sons are impossible to be learned in
the limited time and capacity at
command of the pupils and the be,
lief is prevalent we find, that the ed
ucation of children of the present
day is infinitely poorer, while vastly
more expensive than under the crude
system of haf century ago. Our
public school system cries loudly for
salutary reform. There is too much
cob and too little corn.

Captain Eads is dead and De
Lesseps stands without rival among

The steel railroad bridge spanning
the Mississippi at st. Louis and the
system of jetties at the mouth of the
Mississippi river are monuments to
the great genius of Eads. For sew
eral years he had bill before Con-
gress asking an appropriation to con
struct ship railway across the Ist-
linus of Tuhuantepec. This great
scheme will die with its originator
but the jetty system will probably be
used to confine the Mississippi to its
channel and make the great river
navigable and safe for ocean steam
ers up to St. Louis.

Baltimore Sold Out.

The business men of the Monument
al City have been in state Of uneasy,
chronic excitement for the last fort
night over the unexpected turn in the
affairs of the B. & o. R. R, and the
general impression among them is that
Baltimore has been sold out to the
New York stock gamblers and railroad
st ,ck waterers. Garrett has shown his
inefficiency for the important trust ne
fell heir to, and his lasts do not exactly
conform to the business Of managing
great railroad s stem. Jay Gould has
shown his gamblers hand in shutting
the B. & o off from New York, and
the expense of building the line to
PHILADELPHIA has involved the Com
pany, or rather cramred them finan-
cially. The belief is that the control of
the B. & O. system will pass into a
gambling syndicate of New Workers,
and that watering process of fifty
millions will be administered to the
stock of the B. & o. which will be di-
vided among the Safeguarding syndi-
die te, and the interests of Baltimore
be as little regarded as that of country
villa ge.
That one man should have it in his
power to sell out the interests of
great commercial city like Baltimore is
an outrage which nothing short Of rad
ical measures by the general govern
ment can cure. The whole country is
at the mercy of paratiyvly few men
who are enabled to lay any tax upon
the industry OF the public that it will
bear, by the control they hold oyer the
railroad lines throughout the coun-
try This should not be allowed to
continue. Railroads should be held to
be public property, as much so as our
government and its obligations.
The capital invested in government
bonds is public property, and those who
have loaned it their money can demand
the interest for the money invested or
convert it into cash in the open market
